[First Embodiment]
〔System configuration〕
FIG. 1 is a diagram conceptually showing the system configuration of a monitoring system 1 in the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the monitoring system 1 of the present embodiment includes a center device 10 and one or more mobile terminals 20.

  The center apparatus 10 uses information collected from a monitoring apparatus (not shown) connected via a network or the like (for example, a fixed-point monitoring camera provided on a wall, a ceiling, or a mobile monitoring camera held by a security guard). Perform monitoring work. Further, as will be described in detail in another embodiment, the center apparatus 10 performs a monitoring operation using an image captured by the mobile terminal 20 at a monitoring target location such as an event venue. The center device 10 may be, for example, a stationary PC (Personal Computer) provided in a moving body such as a building (in a monitoring center) or a vehicle, or a portable terminal such as a smartphone or a tablet terminal. May be.

  The mobile terminal 20 is a terminal possessed by a person who is not a guard, such as a visitor of an event. The mobile terminal 20 is not particularly limited as long as it can capture surrounding images (moving images or still images) and can transmit the captured images via a network. Specific examples of the mobile terminal 20 include a smartphone, a tablet terminal, and a mobile phone.

[Processing configuration]
As shown in FIG. 1, the center device 10 according to the present embodiment includes an area information acquisition unit 101, a request information presentation unit 102, and a participation permission reception unit 103.

  The area information acquisition unit 101 acquires information on a desired monitoring area. The “monitoring desired area” is an area where the operator of the center apparatus 10 (hereinafter also referred to as a monitoring operator) desires to strengthen monitoring, and at least of the entire area (monitoring target area) monitored by the monitoring system 1 of the present invention. Some areas. The monitoring operator determines an area where the monitoring should be strengthened based on various information collected for the monitoring work, and designates the area via the input device of the center apparatus 10. The area information acquisition unit 101 acquires the monitoring operator's input as information on the desired monitoring area.

  The area information acquisition unit 101 receives an input of a monitoring desired area from the monitoring operator via, for example, a map of the monitoring target location displayed on the display unit of the center apparatus 10. For example, a heat map (a map showing the distribution of the degree of congestion) generated by using the analysis result of the image of the fixed point monitoring camera or the mobile monitoring camera is superimposed on the map as a judgment material of the monitoring desired region. It may be displayed. For example, the area information acquisition unit 101 acquires, as a monitoring desired area, an area that overlaps a graphic drawn on a map by the monitoring operator using an input device such as a mouse or a touch panel. Further, when the map of the monitoring target location is divided into a plurality of areas in advance, the area information acquisition unit 101 uses, as the monitoring desired area, the area selected from the plurality of areas by the monitoring operator using the input device. It can also be acquired.

  Not limited to this, the area information acquisition unit 101 may automatically determine an area where monitoring should be enhanced using various information collected for monitoring work, and acquire the area as a monitoring desired area. Good. The area information acquisition unit 101 performs monitoring based on, for example, the distribution of the degree of congestion calculated by analyzing the images of the fixed point monitoring camera and the mobile monitoring camera, the distribution of the position information of the terminal of the person performing security, and the like. A desired area can be determined. In addition, if there is a characteristic that some places are inclined or narrow and accidents are more likely to occur than other parts, the monitoring desired area in consideration of the danger of each place in the monitoring target area May be discriminated. In addition, as in a marathon, there are cases where participants and related parties of the event move as the event progresses, and the monitoring target location moves accordingly. In such a case, the area information acquisition unit 101 obtains the position information of the person who becomes a marker among the participants and related parties of the event (for example, in the case of a marathon, the guard and the guide at the end). The monitoring target area may be determined based on the acquired position information.

  The request information presenting unit 102 presents monitoring participation request information using the imaging unit of the mobile terminal in the monitoring desired area. “Participation request information” is information for requesting a general person who is not a security guard to participate in the monitoring work. As will be described in detail in another embodiment, the request information presentation unit 102 is a display unit of the mobile terminal 20 that exists in the monitoring desired area, a device such as a digital signage provided at a location corresponding to the monitoring desired area, or Participation request information is presented on a Web page or the like related to the monitoring target location or the desired monitoring area.

  The user of the portable terminal 20 confirms the participation request information presented from the request information presentation unit 102 and determines whether or not to participate in the monitoring work. When participating in the monitoring business, the user of the mobile terminal 20 transmits a participation permission from the mobile terminal 20 by performing a predetermined procedure. “Participation permission” is some information that the user of the mobile terminal 20 expresses to participate in the monitoring work. For example, when an application necessary for monitoring work is installed in the mobile terminal 20, the mobile terminal 20 is set so as to wait to accept participation request information from the center apparatus 10, and participation is expressed for the received participation request information. The notification of participation permission may be transmitted from the portable terminal 20 when the operation is performed. In addition, for example, participation permission is obtained in accordance with the fact that the mobile terminal 20 is used to access a predetermined website according to participation request information displayed on a display device such as digital signage, and download and install an application necessary for monitoring work. May be configured to be transmitted to the center device 10. Also, for example, based on the contact information of the mobile terminal 20 registered in advance on the center device 10 side, a message such as “Would you like to participate in monitoring work?” Is displayed on the mobile terminal 20 as participation request information, and the mobile terminal 20 When the user selects the button expressing participation, the notification of participation permission may be transmitted from the mobile terminal 20 to the center device 10. In the present invention, the form of permission for participation is not limited as long as the center apparatus 10 can grasp that the user of the mobile terminal 20 has announced participation in the monitoring work.

  The participation permission receiving unit 103 receives a participation permission from the portable terminal 20 for the participation request information presented from the request information presenting unit 102. The participation permission receiving unit 103 also receives and holds terminal identification information for identifying the mobile terminal 20 from the mobile terminal 20 that has transmitted the participation permission. Thereby, the portable terminal 20 that has transmitted the participation permission is recognized by the center device 10 as a “temporary guard terminal”. In addition, there is a possibility that the participation permission receiving unit 103 receives a participation permission from more mobile terminals 20 than necessary. In this case, the participation permission accepting unit 103 may be configured to adjust the number of portable terminals 20 that formally accept the participation permission by first-come-first-served basis or lottery.

In the example of FIG. 12, terminal identification information (for example, a MAC address) for identifying each mobile terminal 20 and the position information acquired by the position information acquisition unit 104 are stored in association with each other. The portable terminal 20 that has transmitted the participation permission transmits its own location information together with its own terminal identification information at a predetermined interval or the like, and the location information acquisition unit 104 of the present embodiment acquires this. Then, the position information acquisition unit 104 updates the table of FIG. 12 using the acquired position information and terminal identification information. However, the method for managing the location information of the mobile terminal 20 is not limited to the example given here.

  The position conversion unit 107 converts the position information of the mobile terminal 20 that has transmitted the participation permission into position information in the map data of the area including the monitoring desired area. The position conversion unit 107 holds, for example, a function for converting a coordinate system to which GPS position information or position information of a Wi-Fi access point belongs to a coordinate system of map data. The position information of each portable terminal 20 acquired by the acquisition unit 104 is converted into position information of map data.

  The map generation unit 108 uses the position information converted by the position conversion unit 107 to generate map data indicating the position of the mobile terminal 20 that has transmitted the participation permission. For example, the map generation unit 108 generates map data as shown in FIG. FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating an example of map data generated by the map generation unit 108. In the example of FIG. 13, the map generation unit 108 generates map data in which the icon I indicating the mobile terminal 20 is superimposed based on the position information converted by the position conversion unit 107. Further, as illustrated in the example of FIG. 13, the map generation unit 108 may be configured to generate map data on which a heat map HM indicating the degree of congestion of the region is superimposed. The degree of congestion of the area can be calculated, for example, by analyzing an image captured by a fixed point monitoring camera, a guard's mobile monitoring camera, or an image captured by the mobile terminal 20 that has transmitted the participation permission. . The monitoring operator confirms the distribution of the degree of congestion and the distribution of the portable terminals 20 that transmitted the participation permission based on the map as shown in FIG. 13, and the area where security is weak with respect to the degree of congestion and necessary for the area. The number of mobile terminals 20 can be specified. It is also possible to specify a desired monitoring area on the map generated by the map generation unit 108. In addition, the map generation unit 108 may calculate and display not only the congestion degree distribution but also the human residence degree distribution. The staying degree can be calculated by, for example, analyzing an image captured by a fixed-point monitoring camera or a mobile monitoring camera including the mobile terminal 20 in time series. Alternatively, the map generation unit 108 may calculate a dissatisfaction level indicating the degree of dissatisfaction by a person and display the distribution. For example, the degree of dissatisfaction of a person is quantified as the degree of dissatisfaction, such as the progress of an event being held (for example, the progress of a sporting game), weather information (such as temperature or humidity), the degree of crowdedness, or the degree of residence. This can be calculated using a predetermined function. Further, the map generation unit 108 may be configured to simultaneously display the difference on the map when there is a difference in danger depending on the place. For example, the map generation unit 108 determines a place that is estimated to be dangerous, such as difficult to reach human eyes, narrow width, steep slope or step, from attribute information given in advance for each place, Highlight the location. Further, the map generation unit 108 calculates the degree of danger based on attribute information (width narrowness, slope angle, etc.) and changes the color and display pattern according to the degree of danger, for example. You may be comprised so that the map which can visually recognize the degree of sex is displayed. Moreover, when a monitoring object area | region moves with time like a marathon, you may be comprised so that the monitoring object area | region which changes with time may be simultaneously displayed on a map. In this case, for example, the administrator of the monitoring system predicts a position where the participant or the related person of the event moves in accordance with the progress of the event, and specifies a monitoring target area to be displayed with time based on the prediction. Is defined in advance. The map generation unit 108 acquires a monitoring target area from a predefined function using time as a parameter, and displays it on the map. Or the map production | generation part 108 can also grasp | ascertain the monitoring object area | region according to the positional information on the leader of an event (the guard and guidance person in the head and tail in the case of a marathon). Specifically, the map generation unit 108 may be configured to acquire position information of an event leader, grasp a monitoring target area from the position information, and display the area on a map.

Thereby, each processing unit of the present embodiment is realized.

[Operation example]
The operation example of the monitoring system 1 of this embodiment is demonstrated using FIG. FIG. 14 is a sequence diagram illustrating a processing flow of the monitoring system 1 according to the third embodiment.

  The portable terminal 20 that has transmitted the participation permission transmits its own location information at a predetermined interval, for example (S501). When the position information acquisition unit 104 acquires the position information of the mobile terminal 20 to which the participation permission has been transmitted, the position conversion unit 107 converts the acquired position information into position information in map data using a conversion function held in advance. (S502). Then, the map generation unit 108 uses the position information in the map data obtained in S502, and map data in which an icon I indicating the position of the mobile terminal 20 that has transmitted the participation permission is superimposed as illustrated in FIG. Is generated (S503). Then, the map generation unit 108 displays the generated map data on the display unit of the center apparatus 10 and presents it to the monitoring operator (S504).

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the monitoring operator can grasp at a glance how the mobile terminals 20 that transmitted the participation permission are distributed in the monitoring target place such as the event venue. Thereby, it is possible to easily determine which part of the monitoring operator should enhance the monitoring.

[Fourth Embodiment]
In the present embodiment, a mode in which the center apparatus 10 collects images captured by the mobile terminal 20 that has transmitted the participation permission will be described.

[Processing configuration]
FIG. 15 is a diagram conceptually showing the processing configuration of the monitoring system 1 in the fourth embodiment. As shown in FIG. 15, the center apparatus 10 further includes a monitoring information acquisition unit 109, an imaging range designation unit 110, an image analysis unit 111, and a feedback information transmission unit 112.

  The monitoring information acquisition unit 109 acquires a monitoring image captured by the mobile terminal 20 from the mobile terminal 20 that has transmitted the participation permission. Specifically, the mobile terminal 20 that has transmitted the participation permission captures an image of the desired monitoring area (monitoring image) using an imaging unit provided in the mobile terminal 20, and sends the image to the monitoring information acquisition unit 109. Send. The image transmitted from the mobile terminal 20 may be a moving image or a still image.

  Here, since the monitoring image captured by the mobile terminal 20 is captured by a person who is not regularly engaged in monitoring work, the monitoring image desired by the monitoring operator cannot always be acquired. Therefore, in the present embodiment, an imaging range specifying unit 110 that notifies the user of the mobile terminal 20 of the imaging range and imaging direction desired by the monitoring operator is provided. The imaging range specifying unit 110 transmits information specifying the imaging range or imaging direction of the monitoring image to the mobile terminal 20 that has transmitted the participation permission. Specifically, for example, the monitoring operator inputs instruction information such as “take an image of the subject A” and “take an image of the entrance direction” in the imaging range designation unit 110 and carry the target surveillance image. The instruction information is transmitted to the terminal 20. Then, the monitoring information desired by the operator can be acquired by the monitoring information acquisition unit 109 by adjusting the imaging range and the imaging direction based on information received from the imaging range specifying unit 110 by the user of the mobile terminal 20. The imaging range designation unit 110 is configured to further accept designation of a range in which instruction information is transmitted, and to transmit the instruction information to the portable terminals 20 existing in the designated range based on the position information of each portable terminal 20. May be.

  The image analysis unit 111 analyzes the imaging state of the monitoring image acquired by the monitoring information acquisition unit 109 using a known image analysis algorithm. The “monitoring image capturing state” includes, for example, the degree of image blur, the recognition result of the subject in the monitoring image, the image capturing direction based on the captured background and electronic compass information, the image white balance, and the like.

  The feedback information transmission unit 112 transmits feedback information to the mobile terminal 20 that has captured the monitoring image analyzed by the image analysis unit 111. Here, the “feedback information” is incentive information for the user of the mobile terminal 20 that has transmitted a useful monitoring image, or an instruction for the user of the mobile terminal 20 to obtain a more useful monitoring image (for example, a desired imaging range or desired (Instruction for imaging direction) is included.

  The incentive information is privilege information that improves user motivation such as member points and coupons of partner companies, for example. The feedback information transmission unit 112 is within the range in which the image analysis unit 111 analyzes the monitoring image (for example, there is little blur, the desired subject is captured, the image is directed in an appropriate direction, and the brightness is easy to see. Or the like), and the incentive information corresponding to the rank may be transmitted to the mobile terminal 20. Moreover, the feedback information transmission part 112 may be comprised so that the input which selects a useful monitoring image may be received from the monitoring operator, and incentive information may be transmitted to the portable terminal 20 which imaged the selected monitoring image. Further, the feedback information transmission unit 112 generates instruction information (for example, a message such as “Please turn on the camera shake prevention function”) for correcting the problem of the captured image from the analysis result of the monitoring image by the image analysis unit 111. To the mobile terminal 20.

[Hardware configuration]
The center apparatus 10 of this embodiment has the same hardware configuration as that of FIG. The storage 1003 further stores programs that realize the functions of the respective processing units (the monitoring information acquisition unit 109, the image analysis unit 111, and the feedback information transmission unit 112) of the present embodiment, and the processor 1001 executes these programs. By doing so, each processing unit of the present embodiment is realized.

[Operation example]
An example of the operation of the monitoring system 1 according to this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 16 is a sequence diagram illustrating a processing flow of the monitoring system 1 according to the fourth embodiment.

  First, the imaging range specifying unit 110 transmits instruction information on the imaging range and the imaging direction to the mobile terminal 20 in accordance with the input of the instruction information by the monitoring operator (S601). The mobile terminal 20 displays the received instruction information for the user of the mobile terminal 20. The user of the portable terminal 20 transmits an image captured according to the instruction information to the center device 10 (S602). When the monitoring information acquisition unit 109 acquires the monitoring image transmitted from the mobile terminal 20, the image analysis unit 111 analyzes the imaging state of the acquired monitoring image (S603). The feedback information transmission unit 112 receives the analysis result of the image analysis unit 111 and determines whether there is a problem with the monitoring image (S604). For example, an imaging state reference for determining whether there is a problem with the monitoring image is set in advance in the feedback information transmission unit 112, and the feedback information transmission unit 112 compares the reference and the analysis result, The quality of the monitoring image acquired in S602 is determined. If there is no problem with the monitoring image as a result of the determination (S604: NO), the feedback information transmission unit 112 transmits predetermined incentive information to the mobile terminal 20 that has captured the monitoring image (S605). Here, the feedback information transmission unit 112 may be configured to rank the monitoring images when determining the analysis result and transmit incentive information corresponding to the rank. On the other hand, when there is a problem with the monitoring image (S604: YES), the feedback information transmission unit 112 generates instruction information for solving the problem and transmits the instruction information to the mobile terminal 20 that captured the monitoring image (S606). This series of processing is performed every time a monitoring image is acquired from the mobile terminal 20.

  As described above, in this embodiment, the monitoring image captured by the imaging unit of the mobile terminal 20 that has transmitted the participation permission is acquired.

Instruction information for capturing a monitor image is fed back. Thereby, the effect which improves the motivation for a user to transmit a useful monitoring image, and the effect which improves the possibility that a useful monitoring image is obtained can be expected.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, you may have a structure (incentive information transmission part) which transmits incentive information with respect to the portable terminal which transmitted the monitoring image. In this case, specifically, when the monitoring information acquisition unit 109 acquires the monitoring image in S602, the incentive information transmission unit transmits the incentive information to the mobile terminal 20 that has transmitted the monitoring image. Since the incentive information can be received by transmitting the monitoring image, it can be expected that the user of the mobile terminal 20 that transmitted the participation permission actively transmits the monitoring image.
